I'm a transgender woman who has loved music for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories are of sitting on the floor and listening to 45's and 78's. Music is the essential part of my life. Over the years I made many attempts to make a list of my favorite music. In 2011 I came up with the idea of http://scotts-vital-music.blogspot.com and creating the list by posting a song every day. When I transitioned in 2015 and changed my name I created this blog to continue the project...

"Everything Counts" by Depeche Mode
It is absolutely crazy to think about this! KCQN has turned into 103.1 The Wave this morning! Almost exactly 5 years to the day that KCQN went on the air for the first time. It is so COOL to have been involved in the creation of a radio station in Salt Lake City!! Chet has said several times that The Wave wouldn't exist if it hadn't been for my help.
Unfortunately, I wasn't in Salt Lake for the first airing because I was returning from my trip to St. George with Misty K. Snow and the rest of her team. I stayed the night in Cedar City.
Anyway, I thought to honor the new station, I would pick some songs I first heard on KCGL, lo those many years ago. Like KCGL is what turned me on to New Wave in the first place and that led to my meeting Chet and the others involved with the various stations that grew out of it: KRP, KJQ, X96 and KCQN.
